What once was
Although the 1630 is still on the system, most of the locals in the southeast now have 60Es for power. For whatever reason, almost all of the remaining high hoods seem to be in captive service in the North and Midwest. The old 1630, one of 11 high hood SD40-2s in the N&W's first order for the type in 1973, was once a staple in the Piedmont region. It was seen here leading P86, a Hayne (Spartanburg) to Union, SC turn job through Pacolet, SC
